Great play based on a true story
Dan Gordon's new play is based on the true story of a non-Jew who assumed great risk to protect Jews during the Holocaust.
As housekeeper for an SS major, Irena Gut Opdyke, a Polish woman and devout Catholic, was able to rescue only a fraction of the potential victims that Oskar Schindler spared. But what she achieved with far more limited resources, through courage and sacrifice, is undeniably inspiring.
